Yamazaki 10 Year Old Bot.2000s (70cl, 40%)
$595.00
Discontinued 10 year old single malt from the Yamazaki distillery, aged in bourbon barrels. A lovely fruity dram, quite floral.
The 10 year old was introduced to the distillery’s core range in 1995, and is bottled from American oak casks. Despite being well-regarded, it was discontinued around 2015 as Suntory was facing up to stock shortages in its warehouses after the unprecedented demand for Japanese whisky in the 21st century.
An introductory malt from Yamazaki, Japan’s oldest distillery (founded in 1923). This is mild-mannered, clean, sweet malt, charming and very accessible – Speyside fans looking to try a Japanese malt should start here.
